Description of key information
The primary skin irritation potential of the test item was investigated according to ISO 10993 -10:2010. The test item (0.5 g wetted with tap water) was applied to the intact skin of three New Zealand White rabbits under semi-occlusive conditions for 24 hours (one patch with test material on each side of the vertebral column). The scoring of the skin reactions was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the test item. The mean score of the 24, 48 and 72 h readings from two patches was calculated for each animal. No edema was observed at any time point (score 0) and only very slight erythema were seen in two animals (score 1) which were reversible after 72 hours at the latest. There was no indication of systemic toxicity.
The test material was subject to an acute eye irritation / corrosion test in the rabbit according to OECD TG 405.The test item was applied by instillation of 0.1 ml (0.05 g) into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each of three New Zealand White rabbits. The scoring of irritating effects was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after test item instillation.No iridial effects were noted during the study. Very slight corneal opacity (score 1) was observed in one animal 24 hours after test substance application but not in the two other test animals at any timepoint. Conjunctival redness (score 1 or 2) was observed in every animal one and 24 h after application, and in one animals still at the 48 h reading, but fully reversible by 72 h after application. Chemosis (score 1) was observed in every animal one hour after application but not at later time points.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Individual Animal data (time points: 1h / 24h / 48h / 72h after application, animal #1, animal#2 animal #3)
cornea: 0/0/0/0, 0/1/0/0, 0/0/0/0
iris: 0/0/0/0, 0/0/0/0, 0/0/0/0
conjunctivae redness: 2/1/0/0, 2/2/0/0, 2/2/1/0
chemosis: 1/0/0/0, 1/0/0/0, 1/0/0/0 - Other effects:
- no signs of gross toxicity or behavioral changes.
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The test item did not reveal any remarkable irritation potential on the eyes of rabbits, tested in this study according to OECD test guideline no. 405 and GLP conditions.
- Executive summary:
The test material was subject to an acute eye irritation / corrosion test in the rabbit according to OECD TG 405. The test item was applied by instillation of 0.1 ml (0.05 g) into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each of three New Zealand White rabbits. The scoring of irritating effects was performed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after test item instillation. No iridial effects were noted during the study. Very slight corneal opacity (score 1) was observed in one animal 24 hours after test substance application but not in the two other test animals at any timepoint. Conjunctival redness (score 1 or 2) was observed in every animal one and 24 h after application, and in one animals still at the 48 h reading, but fully reversible by 72 h after application. Chemosis (score 1) was observed in every animal one hour after application but not at later time points.

- Endpoint:
- eye irritation: in vitro / ex vivo
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- an in vitro eye irritation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo eye irritation study are available
